> accounting of parts installed will be available once I enter all the
> receipts into a spreadsheet):
> 
> Car fully operational
> One small dent over driver-side door handle.
> 99.9% rust free - car was stored in the Eastern Washington Desert  most of
> its life and only has 2 quarter-sized rust spots on the rear lower edge
> corners of the bonnet (very repairable).
> Russett Brown - Original paint in very good condition aside from
> fiberglass hard top seals and tarping during a cross-country move.
> 
> Spare engine on stand
> Factory ragtop in excellent condition, plus aftermarket fiberglass
> hardtop.
> Fully rebuilt overdrive transmission
> New driveshaft and all new U-Joints, professionally balanced.
> Rebuilt differential
> New stock springs, front and rear
> Monza exhaust
> Previous owner installed new engine, runs tight.
> HS4 carburetors, imported from Britain w/Britain intake manifold - Freshly
> rebuilt by Joe Curto - K&N Air Filters installed.
> New electric fuel pump - trunk mounted.
> Good rubber all around, including new door seals.
> Many spare parts, including most of a non-overdrive transmission.
> Factory-original spare, never used, surprisingly in good shape.
> Factory radio bracket and new AM/FM/CD.
> New brakes all around with stainless steel hoses.
> I may be missing other repairs/upgrades; entry of all those receipts will
> remind me.
> 
> I am seeking $4000 or best offer and need to sell the vehicle in the next
> 30-60 days before the creditors/bill collectors seize it.  Car is garaged
> at my home in White Lake, MI (about halfway between Ann Arbor and
> Detroit).
> Photos available on request.

> Regards,
